it was a weak attempt at humour from Lord Sugar


and well said Marsh, it was definitely a racist joke from him, glad he deleted it now and apologized for it

To be fair to him he's shown with his actions over quite a long career and life that he probably isn't racist. The tweet could definitely be construed as racist though so people have the right to criticise him for it and call it out, I just doubt that that was his intent or that he's actually a racist person.

Something is either racist or it isn't, regardless of how many people care or notice.
According to LeatherTrumpet black people reacting to racism makes them snowflakes. I bet people who protested against slavery were snowflakes and all.

Caucasian central trolls can bait away about random stuff but racism's in a different league. There's a thing called boundaries. Fool.
